hey, before flashing b052 you need to chang your region, which can be done by replacing the default oeminfo file with European regions oeminfo file...

Official OTA firmwares for VTR-L09 for download

Hi all, i found all newest firmwares on: http://hwmt.ru/oth/HWFF/info/view.php?find_model=VTR-L09
Be carefull!
Because now iam stuck with only working fastboot and recovery. For my model (i only know what i own VTR-L09 device, but nothing more about operator, or brand) none of these FW can not be installed through "dload" folder from sdcard and iam bricked my phone trying to install wrong files using Fastboot.
And if somebody know and can tell how can write different brand, or operator firmware to phone i would be very grateful.

Maybe someone know how to restore P10 to working stage when only works Fastboot and Recovery, but nothing of these methods not working:
1. Restore from eRecovery, because no firmware list for device not found.
2. Restore from HiSuite because at the moment this model does not supported.
3. Dload updates from SD/OTG because of EMUI 5.1 security rules.

Thank You, currently DC Phoenix not supported for Huawei P10 and phone most likely received from Poland, or UK I can not exactly answer.

I try this FW "VTR-L09C432B113_v78079_f1", but same result "Software install failed!" on 5%.
You may understand firmware code structure? Is Cxxx number show brand/operator, or Bxxx number? Can You explain to me firmware code structure?
For example this firmware "VTR-L09C432B113", has 3 parts in name..

C is Cust that is the region, like C432 is EU, C185 is Middle East Africa, C636 is Asia, then there is some branded custs like Vodafone C02 etc.....
B is Build for the Firmware, higher build is newer Firmware.
Then u can only flash a FULL firmware, u cant flash OTA.
L09 is singel sim.
L29 is dual sim.
VTR is P10 model
EVA is P9
VIE is P9 Plus
Etc.....

OTA can be with two different types Full or Update. For full OTA images is it impossible to extract Update.app file to SD card or OTG "dload" folder and install it? Like it done in this post http://rootmygalaxy.net/how-to-manually-install-ota-updates-on-huawei-devices/?

No u cant, u can extract it but it will fail on update. U must have a FULL firmware to do it, and it has to be signed by Huawei before u can update. The only solution is a paid solution that i sent to u on PM.

Hey,
I have found the full images for European Model on a page (sorry, can't share the link due to forum restrictions just yet. I googled for
Code:
"vtr-l09C432" full
and picked the russian page from the results.)
I am currently downloading VTR-L09C432B123 OTA FULL, because I had somehow lost my camera app, and will try to reflash it using the dload method.
The page downloads the update from the official huawei update mirrors, so I feel much more comfortable with this approach than with the paid options.
Update currently failing as my only micro SD card is formatted FAT32, and the update.app file is 4GB

Two quotes, two anwsers:
Yes and no.
I have now enabled dual sim on my VTR-L09C432 - I can make a pic of my package if you don't believe
But I can use it only as Dual Sim Standby. That means, I have both sims active and can make calls with both sims. Internet is working with only one sim which I can choose from settings.
I used it the last 3 days and it worked good. I have my private sim with internet enabled in slot 1 and my sim for work, which is only for calls, in slot 2.
I can make calls using both sims, but when I'm in a call and someone tries to call me on my other sim, the provider tells him, I'm currently not available.
The only thing I can't do is using internet from SIM1 while calling with SIM2.
But this is a thing, I can, personally, live with.
Now I'm interested to know, how the L29 naturally works. Are there two IMEIs?
EDIT:
Screenshot of Dual Sim settings, screenshot of call protocoll, photo of package with phone.
And yes, where I live is nearly no signal - thanks Vodafone! It's a big city in Germany an there's no signal...

Huawei and (lack of) updates

Hi guys/gals,
So currently I'm stuck with firmware PRA-LX1C432B172, after forcing the update using FirmwareFinder (else I would be stuck at B161). But there are a few new firmwares available (B179 and B181 for single sim and B180 and B182 for dual sim).
Is there any way to force the installation of those firmwares? Because huawei keeps on having new builds and those builds are not made available through OTA updates or even have authorization for install.
The Mate 9 guys have a patched erecovery image that allows them to skip the authentication.
Note: I've been able to install dual sim firmwares on my single sim device (without enabling dual sim) because most firmwares include both a PRA-L11 and a PRA-L31 data package.

I've tried the eRecovery trick, it downloads the firmware and in the end gives an error and doesn't allow the firmware to get flashed.
Are there any hardware differences between the P8 Lite 2017 Single sim and Dual sim phones or is it all software differences?

Rebranding Problem

Hi ALL
I just rebrand my P10 L09 From Australia Voda Version To Europe Version
but the problem is after rebranding. there is a duel sim option shows up in the Settings
Any idea or i just the wrong rom
Which firmware have you installed? VTR-L09C432 or VTR-L29C432?
There are some guys with L09 and dual sim feature, which should only be available on L29.
But there's no negative thing on this except one line added to the settings. You can still use a SD card.

[Guide] Huawei P10 Plus Debrand/Rebrand/Update for Oreo&Nougat
This thread will be discontinued, because Huawei refuses to provide unlock codes in the future, because of security reasons.
A shame that after the support end of the device it will be quite useless, cause you don´t get any security updates and have no chance to make secure again, by flashing someting else.
I recommend you not buy any Huaweidevices in the future cause of that.
Here´s my P10 Guide, the steps are the same for the P10 Plus: Huawei P10 Plus Debrand/Rebrand/Update for Oreo&Nougat
Just use the following files for the P10 Plus instead:

Did you already use this method before? Seems you messed up with the 1 of the 3 updatefiles. Especially the update_all_hw.zip which is only for the l29 or l09.
Did you try to update via firmware finder and did you make check with imei in that tool? That should fix your problems, if you use the FullOTA.

The FULLOTA in firmware finder says 'The firmware is not approved for installation'.
I have VKY-L09C432 which I converted to VKY-L29C432 and was on B170. I used the 3 update files from the the link you provided in step 2 'HWOTA_VKY-L29C432_B177.zip'. Was I supposed to change any of these files?

No, i think you just haven´t read the guide carefully. In firmwarefinder choose an older one, that is approved for installation.

Probably messed up on 2. Run the update.bat file from a preopended CMD with adminrights, It will ask you if you copied the files. Press any key to continue.

No connection to the mobile network after rebranding
Hi
I went through all your described steps and everything worked fine. However, I've got a strange problem.
I have different SIM cards available (multiple mobiles), but only one (prepaid from croatia) is working after the procedure. The ones from Vodafone Germany and Swisscom do not work.
They work fine on other mobiles. Everything else is working fine on the P10+. The SIMs not working, are displayed in the phone, but will not connect to the mobile network of any provider.
No available networks are listed. Both SIM-slots tested.
Any idea, where the problem could come from?
Thanks for your help.

You can still rebrand, but AL00 is already dual sim if that's what you were after.

There's a walkthrough for using HWOTA to rebrand to the L29 model: https://forum.xda-developers.com/p1...nvert-to-dualsim-huawei-p10-plus-vky-t3605071 Works very well, changed my Fido/Rogers L09 without any issues.

Hello,
Tried following the guide but now my phone VKY-L09 shows up as a NRD90M with 2GB of RAM. followed the procedure many times now but still with the same results.
Doing the rebrand seems to work (if i do it twice on the update script it shows VKY-L29C432 but after booting up it still is NRD90M.
I can boot to fastboot/twrp/erecovery without issues.
